“Patients, surgeons, and hospitals will all benefit from the Flex Robotic System ’s enabling minimally invasive surgical technology,” Samuel Straface, Medrobotics president and chief executive, said in a statement. “The Flex Robotic System will provide transoral single-site access and visualization for surgery in hard-to-reach locations in the throat and voice box. Minimally invasive surgery has been shown to be more cost-effective and less painful for the patient and also leads to quicker hospital discharge and faster recovery.”
